No antagonists spawn, but the crew gets objectives to build high-tech constructions requiring the cooperation of the whole station. These [[Goals#Station_Goals|Station Goals]] include a bluespace artillery position, a station shield or a DNA vault. Unless it is forced by an admin, this mode will only appear when there is not enough players for any other gamemode in rotation.
Eldritch Horror is an antagonist that draws similarities to the old Cortical Borers, you start as a basic horror with few abilities and hijack the bodies of crew members to find and consume the souls of specific targets. Afterwards using those souls to upgrade your own abilities to continue consuming the souls of your targets as the crew become more aware of your presence and start to actively hunt you down.

===Dynamic===
===Dynamic===
The dynamic game mode generates a threat number which is used to "buy" rulesets (rulesets are basically your antagonists). This means you can have rounds with for example traitors and cult. You can have up to three roundstart rulesets depending on the pop and threat level. Then there are latejoin and midround rulesets. The ''latejoin'' ruleset can assign late joining players as antagonists, and the ''midround'' ruleset assigns (prompts) ghosts or currently living players as antagonists.

You can have multiple rulesets depending on the pop and threat level. There are latejoin and midround rulesets as well; The ''latejoin'' ruleset can assign late joining players as antagonists, and the ''midround'' ruleset assigns (prompts) ghosts or currently living players as antagonists.  


The threat level of the dynamic round is hinted by the "status summary" automatically printed by the communication consoles near roundstart:

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''
Currently, there are five gamemodes excluded from what can be picked as a roundstart ruleset, which are [[Revolution|revolutionaries]], [[#Monkey|monkey mode]], [[#Clown Operatives|clown ops]], [[Gang War|gang war]], and [[#Extended|extended]], due to some conflicting mechanics when introduced with other antagonists.
Experimental, still undergoing balancing.

===[[Nations]]===
Nations is an unorthodox game mode that relies almost entirely upon roleplaying, because of this it's very rare and devolves into fighting quickly. In Nations, departments become independent states and it is their goal to survive through control of station resources, diplomacy, and battle.
